I was thinking along these lines as well. I respect Jeff's knowledge tremendously, especially penetration vs expansion. But shooting through thick hyde, a dense layer of fat maybe and lean muscle is far different than shooting into a human, thin layer of skin probably still a dense layer of fat then into muscle.
Wild animals are very different than humans.
I enjoy watching Paul Harrell's videos on ammunition. I found these two to be very interesting.
